This post is to make offer for An instructors course on Appleseed Pistol Clinic.

We need a host range, classroom, and two range days. It can be done in one Range day-if that's what's available.If so,  The first day would be class, with  books and blue guns exercises/demos and critiques. The second day would be the live day for qualification. 

Bring your .22 to these events. Get one ready now.

All ranges present restrictions but they can be effectively worked out to standard.

We have done eastern and western pa and will be doing Ohio in November 7-8 (see Ohio). Please contact me with PM on the forum if you can put a few red hats/sb together, even if it's a small number.

Seeking clarification: a .22 is a requirement? No larger caliber pistols are allowed?
The difference between a novice and a master: the novice does it until they get it right. The master does it until they can't get it wrong.

No. It was just a STRONG suggestion.  Just less recoil and cheaper ammo.

They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.
Benjamin Franklin, 1775

"A free people ought not only to be armed, but disciplined; to which end a uniform and well-digested plan is requisite; and their safety and interest require that they should promote such manufactories as tend to render them independent of others for essential, particularly military, supplies."  George Washington 1790

"[T]o preserve liberty, it is essential that the whole body of the people always possess arms, and be taught alike, especially when young, how to use them…"

We don't seem to be doing any of these in FL yet but just curious. What would be the expected round count?

@ScubaSteve - I asked the same question and the answer I got was 400-600 (a lot!)

We just finished a 1-day Appleseed Pistol Clinic at the Ramseur Range and the round count was about 425.

No, not .22 only. (But it's a good idea until the student gets all the Mental marksmanship plates spinning in the same direction and all at the same time).
